See the first text box on the right for links to our preparations, trip down Baja, life in Mexico, cruising and trip back up to SoCal. Unfortunately we are back to the grind in the USA...

Further Interruption

Complete and utter interruption.
Full-on life interruption!
Tomorrow we do this:

"Meerkat" goes to the spa.
Gets her damages fixed.
A bit of a face-lift.
A bunch of bottom paint.
A huge amount of cash out-flow.

About Us

We cruised Mexico's West Coast for 3 years on our prior boat, "Thistle" a Columbia 50. Went back to California in 2000 and bought the "new boat" in 2004. We then spent a year and a half cruising in Mexico. We just did the "Baja Bash" ~ sailed up the outside of Baja and returned to SoCal! We are We are now back to work for awhile...
A thought we say to ourselves everyday:
"You'll only regret the things you didn't do".

Words We Try To Live By

"Life is either a daring adventure or Nothing." ~ Helen Keller

"A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for." ~ John A. Shedd

"Make it happen." ~ Alan Burg of the sailing vessel Toshal

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the places and moments that take our breath away." ~ Anonymous

“Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.” ~ Rabbi Hyman Schachtel
